SeaMonkey

-

- SeaMonkey is a web browser, email client, news reader, HTML editor and an IRC client.[2] -

-

Spyware Level: High

-

- SeaMonkey makes about 35 requests on first start, with a connection to Google SafeBrowsing recurring about every 30 minutes. While the latter can be partially disabled, there is no apparent way to disable connections to location.services.mozilla.com and shavar.services.mozilla.com (which is GoogleSafe Browsing related). -

Ideally disable internet connections before the first run of the browser.

-

In Edit→Preferences→Browser set "Blank page" for "Browser Startup" (or set your own homepage). Do the same for "New Window" and "New Tab" (which are also options in the "Display on" drop down menu).

In Edit→Preferences→Privacy & Security uncheck everything under "Safe Browsing".

You can disable automatic updates for add-ons in Edit→Preferences→Advanced→Software Installation, and unchecking "Automatically check for updates" and "Automatically download and install the updates".
